What do you think of this guy /lit/? why does every history/philosophy professor hate this guy? his ideas arent too far fetched, obviously the monomyth idea isnt applicable to EVERY single culture, but its a relevant model isnt it?

taking a class on him right now. Will let /lit/ know in a few months
Campbell is brilliant in his own way and a wonderful synthesizer and popularizer who introduced millions to important ideas. Scholars don't like him because of that. Scholars are mostly retards though.

I agree. tho he attributes catholic dualism to a lot of cultures that dont really subscribe to that model (thats one problem ive heard most scholars have with him)
